with the SonicWALL NetExtender VPN client software. 

The version of this control installed on the remote host fails to
validate arguments to several methods, such as 'AddRouteEntry',
'serverAddress', 'sessionId', 'clientIPLower', etc.  If a remote
attacker can trick a user on the affected host into visiting a
specially crafted web page, the attacker could leverage these issues 
to overflow a buffer and execute arbitrary code on the host subject to
the user's privileges." );
